Tlon: the deaths at work increase, and we are so exhausted that they cannot get angry

Last year, the deaths at work increased by 4.7% Compared to the previous one, with 1,090 people who have lost their lives, almost three a day. It is a situation that does not generate scandal, and which is perceived as a side effect of the world of work.

In some cases, a small debate opens and wonders, by removing, of the solutions; The need to highlight is highlighted change the old infrastructure and secure the workforcebut then everything inexorably remains as it is. Still, a condition like this should be perpetually at the center of the speech, because it represents a real collective mourning.

Moreover, the INAIL data do not paint the picture of a side effect but of a systemic context made of precariousness, chain contracts, reduced controls, productivity culture at any costand constant cuts on the safety costs of those who work. The deaths mainly concern sectors such as building, agriculture, industry, logistics, mainly involve men ultra -sepired and foreignersin particular in Basilicata, Valle d’Aosta, Umbria, Trentino, Campania, Sardinia, Sicily.

The life of those who work does not always have the same value: it depends on where you are, on what age and what contract you have, From what the company is willing to spend to prevent you from being in danger.

The founding problem is a culture of work that empties people of meaning, makes them perceive as superfluous e always at risk of losing their rights. A cultural change is needed to stop, once and for all, to think that work ennobles us with any condition, and that in the calculation of the possibilities many workers can also put their lives.

According to the report State of the Global Workplace 2025just published by Galluponly 10% of those who work in Italy – in any sector – are really involved in the work they do. Work is a source of stress, loneliness, sadness, and reason depends on 70% on the quality of one’s garments, also often in burnout, forced to cut costs and achieve unsustainable personal and collective objectives. The study highlights a series of very alarming data regarding Italy: we have a very high rate of daily stress (49%) e sadness (21%), among the five highest in Europe, and among the lowest as regards anger (9%). That is, we are exhausted, exhausted, depressed, stressed, and we can no longer get angry, because everything seems impossible to change. We are resigned. And there is nothing good that can be born from this resignation.

If something does not change, the work in the coming years will continue to cause deaths, to aim for senseless objectives and emptying the lives of millions of peopleforced to accept inhuman conditions to satisfy a model of productivity and performance that destroys every meaning and forces a vicious circle of chronic tiredness and negative emotions.
